Monica, Re: "But Hector promised a profit for the second quarter ... Advanced Micro Devices Inc, the world's second-largest maker of microprocessors that run PCs, is on track to meet its targeted return to net profit in the second quarter, chief operating officer Hector Ruiz said on Wednesday." Oooops ... Looks like Hector was spending too much time on this thread listening to Dan3, PT'er, Niceguy, and "other 'Droids". <ggg> Make It So, Yousef

Monica, Re: "AMD says on track to return to profit in Q2" Yup. Sanders ditched AMD at just about the right time. Now Ruiz will be named Scape Goat when all is said and done. Anyone still remember the name Atiq Raza?? eetimes.com "They essentially conceded they will see no more revenue or market share from the K6 family, so the future of the company hangs on the K7," said Paul Mansky, associate analyst with U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray (Minneapolis). Raza's departure took many by surprise, both inside and outside AMD. However, Gwennap said the decision was preceded by conflict between Raza and his boss, Sanders. "He's had trouble fitting in there, and there have been a lot of conflicts between the two," he said. "Raza had trouble getting programs approved or budgets signed. If this happens too many times, a person can get tired of it." This mirrors reports that Richard Forte, former head of Vantis, also butted heads with Sanders and was forced to leave. Forte has just been named president and chief executive officer of Integrated Telecom Express Inc. (Santa Clara, Calif.). Yet Raza's departure should not derail the Athlon rollout, said Mike Feibus, principal of Mercury Research (Scottsdale, Ariz.). "My guess is this is something that came up quickly," he said. "I talked to Atiq a week ago and there was no hint of this. Even the people at high levels over there were surprised about this one." Deja Vu?? wbmw
